[quote=Anonymous]Usually the diagnosis will include recommendations for accomodations. Is extra time listed in your report? My DC got 50% extra time on tests and quizzes in HS. We worked with the academic dean on the accomodations and on communicating those to teachers. We did have to update the testing in 9th grade becasue it hadn't been done since 2nd grade and most places require testing wthin 3 years. We also got 50% extra time from the college board and ACTs. We were denied by the college board the first time, had to do more testing, and then were approved by junior year PSATs. The ACTs are handled through the school and are easier to deal with. It is a long process, especially if you have to reapply. You need to start with the school and they should be able to give you some direction.[/quote]
